    Halloween party at the NITECAP. Great band and a wonderful time!
    Julie U.

    There is everything to love about this place. Wonderful owners, delicious cocktails, live music and good food trucks on many weekends. The regular patrons are really nice people. There's two pool tables for those who like to play. If you're in the Verdi area, this is the best place to hang out!

    Beer, gaming, pool, darts, good drinks

    I love Nitecap! The vibe is amazing. It's clean and cozy. They have two pool tables, a dart board, giant Jenga, karaoke on Saturday, live bands Friday, and much more to come for the summer months! Also Pauli is a phenomenal bartender

    My favorite place to get a cocktail in Reno…read more They have a unique "Old Fashioned" with buffalo trace bourbon, moroccan sugar, coconut, tobacco bitters, dehydrated pineapple. It really does not taste anything like an "old fashioned" but it's very good and my usual go-to. Ambiance is cool. Has a very Edgar Alan Poe vibe mixed with an alchemist/speakeasy. They have a small patio as well. Service: top-notch mixologists/alchemists.

Love the quality of the drinks as they absolutely put effort and time making quality drinks with quality ingredients. It's relatively small inside so I can only imagine it could get packed in there. We had several drinks and every single one was perfection! The bathroom is the cutest and they have the coolest speakeasy door that the employees use to get to the back (not for the customers). My rant..I'm not from the area so I had NO idea what this place was when I walked by. It looked cute so my husband, myself and child walked up the steps and they sat outside while I went to check it out and see if this was a bar/club/ restaurant. I walked inside and instantly got the death glare from an employee. I instantly said omg I take it this place isn't kid friendly.. he rudely said no. I wanted to clarify and confirm even outside ? He said no. I apologized and they left but the vibe and way he said it was definitely off putting. My sister and I decided to stay for a drink while my husband/child went to walk around. Usually I don't give bad costumer service a chance.. but I realllllllly wanted a drink that one of those others customers were drinking. If this place had better costumer service. It would be a 5

The interior is dimly lit, calm, and still very inviting--something you really have to experience in person. The drinks and mocktails are so well crafted that it's almost shocking--you take a sip, then look back at the menu like, "Wait... that's all it cost?" and then back at the bartender like, "Hold on... you made this perfectly for me?" We sat at the bar top and, like everyone else, got caught up in our phones trying to post everything in real time. But Amanda, who was making our drinks, could spark a conversation out of thin air. She was a total pro at keeping us engaged and enjoying our time, all while making drinks and taking care of everyone else around us.

The standout of…read morethe night was definitely Amanda the mixologist--she was absolutely great, incredibly fun to talk to, and an overall delight to be around while making our drinks. The atmosphere itself is on the smaller side, but it fits the cozy, hidden speakeasy vibe perfectly. ​That being said, the pricing is a bit tough to swallow. I ordered a drink for $22 that tasted good, but overall, the drinks here are just way too expensive for what you get. They also had live music playing during our visit; it was good lounge background music that added a nice vibe to the room, but it wasn't anything spectacular or something to get overly excited about. ​It's a cool spot to check out for the ambiance, but the high drink prices keep it at a flat three stars for me.

    I had some takeout food for my family last night, Saturday, and we were very disappointed. I…read moreordered the French dip sandwich with onion rings, my husband ordered chili, and my grandson ordered a cheese pizza. The French dip sandwich was salty, with very little meat, and the onion rings were burned almost black and also very salty, almost to the point of being unpalatable. My husband's chili was good. He said, "My grandson's cheese pizza looked good, but was like a hard, chewy piece of cardboard," and I tasted it, and I agree. They had been here once before for dinner, dine-in, about eight months ago, and I was pretty pleased. Not sure if the times are tough, or if they've had a change in style, but the food has really gone downhill. It's very sad to see if that's the case because it seems like any place that opens in the village at Somersett doesn't do very well. Who knows what the reason is. All I know is that I spent $60 on food that I ended up mostly throwing away because it was unpalatable. That's not good in this day and age.

    We have been here once before and enjoyed it well enough. Nothing special, also nothing wrong…read more We came back because we wanted to support a local business. We live in Somersett. However, I waited 7 minutes at the front of the restaurant and no one came by. The bartender saw me, made eye contact, and looked away. No acknowledgement. Perhaps she was waiting for me to come to the bar? I'm not sure. But it really rubbed me the wrong way that she saw me waiting and ignored me, especially when the sign says wait to be seated.

    We came to Wolf after having dinner next door, we wanted to check the place out and have some…read moredrinks. We were lucky enough to be seated right by the faux fire place. We placed an order for a round of drinks. We ordered the sheep's clothing and big bad wolf. The drinks came out in a beautiful presentation and couldn't wait to try them. Unfortunately the sheep's clothing was not good. I was hoping it would be more refreshing and spicy and it just tasted like it was full of a mixer and had so much cotton candy on the edge you had to pull it off to drink it. Again, beautiful presentation but taste fell flat. The big bad wolf was a little sweet but there was no complaints on that one other than the wolf in there leaving your lips a little black. Not the most convenient. My husband ordered the huff and puff after and he enjoyed that one a lot better. I decided to give it another go and ordered an espresso martini which tasted a lot better. It comes with a donut hole and some chocolate which added to the great presentation. The donut hole seemed to be a little stale but I took it as being more for presentation than to eat it. Since we just came for dinner, we were super hungry but decided to order the caviar. It was mostly enjoyable other than the chips tasting greasy. These are supposed to be hand cut chips which we loved, but there was a greasy taste left in your mouth. Overall the ambiance was a great experience and at least half the drinks were good. I would like to come back another time to get the food a try. Overall if you are looking for a fun place to go, this is a good spot for the ambiance. Bonus! We actually saw Lisa herself walk through.

    The perfect spot for a a date night or girls' night out…read more Came here before with my husband but my last visit was with four girlfriends to celebrate a birthday, and we were all blown away by how gorgeous Wolf is. What we ordered: * Signature Wolf Bread - Can bread be the star of the meal? Because this was! It was the unanimous table favorite. * Wagyu Ragù - Another favorite! The pasta was perfectly cooked, and we wished we saved some bread to sop up some of the sauce with it. * 16 oz Ribeye - We appreciated that the kitchen sliced it for sharing, but we all agreed it could've used more seasoning. The vegetables were a bit bland as well, which was a bummer since it was the priciest dish. * Strawberry Rose Brûlée Tart -good but missing something. Still good for sharing. Loved all cocktails we got, they were more impressive than the food. They were beautiful, perfectly on theme for a girls' night, and strong AF. So yup we'll definitely be back.

Wide variety of alcohol. Step out of your comfort zone and let them make a drink for you with your favorite spirit. The wall is full of selections from around the world. They do not have a beer selection. Have your valid ID ready no matter how "young" you are. Everyone is carded.

We had two very different tastes (vodka and tequila) and she nailed both drinks perfectly. The bar felt clean, welcoming and comfortable even with its edgy vibe. I also loved the tarot cards they provide! I think they may have been intended as coasters (lol) but I kept mine as a souvenir and now use it as my bookmark. It's become one of my favorite little keepsakes. Location and parking: it's on a main strip right on the corner with a small parking lot but there's also accessible street parking in the neighborhood. I highly recommend it and will definitely return anytime I'm in Reno

I've been going here and make great memories since their first location I believe they opened in 2017. I've been to a lot of different arcade bars across California and this one's my favorite! The vibes now are even better than before the whole setups just pure fun!! The best adult arcade I've been to in a long time! Drinks are strong, games are epic, pinball always fun, and you leave with not that bad of a dent in your wallet!
